A history of human civilization is a cultural history, and also a history of cultural integration. Cultural change is a long-term process of historical development which generated at the beginning of human culture. Cultural conflict, adaptation, or integration is based on the premise that different cultures spread and contact. The three Baoan villages are not only a multi-ethnic "mixed" area, but also a"mixed" area of a variety of national cultures. The inter-ethnic cultural contacts and dissemination lead to cultural changes in the multi-ethnic mixed area, the sequence is from conflict to adaptation and integration, and ultimately forming a new cultural pattern of mutual absorption, promotion and common development of different national cultures. Changes are a gradually deepening process from material culture to institutional culture ultimately to the level of spiritual culture.This paper takes Han people's immigration in Dadun village as its study object, which belongs to one village of the Baoan villages and investigates their cultural changes on the basis of three field research. The text in the paper consists of seven chapters including the introduction section, and the introduction section mainly deals with the current research status and significance and also explains about methods in detail.
